I wanted to install the ad blocking prg which requires an alternate method of installing since Windows Vista is the OS on my new laptop . The instructions seem a little too advanced for me. If I install it incorrectly will it damage my computer or is there another recommended program I can use? ...thanks for all the help.

Are you talking about IE7Pro or the ad.doubleclick block?

 

[dansbrat]

Yes, the ad.doubleclick block.

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with Vista; I run XP. However, if you have IE7Pro installed properly you really wouldn't need to run the block ad.doubleclick. IE7Pro should block them automatically.

OK great! I will install IE7Pro. You're awesome! Thanks for your help.

Just make sure your using IE7 as your browser first.
